GOALS AND OBJECTIVES FOR THE STRATEGIC PLAN FOCUS AREAS: Economic Growth SUMMARY PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The City's Development Services Department is working with consultant Logan Simpson Design, Inc. to develop an area plan for the land surrounding the Buckeye Municipal Airport. Preparation of this Airport Specific Area Plan began in February 2026 under a contract totaling $235,064. This Council action amends Contract No. 32600032 by $50,000, from $235,064 to $285,064, incorporating the allowance for additional services that were included in Exhibit B of the Original Agreement - Fee Proposal, but was excluded from the original not-to-exceed amount. The additional services are primarily intended for enhanced community engagement, a mobile immersion lab interactive and facilitated virtual reality fly- through showcasing final design concepts developed through the Airport Specific Area Plan planning process. Council approval is required, as this amendment increases the total value of the contract with Logan Simpson Design, Inc. beyond $250,000 to $285,064. The Airport Specific Area Plan is anticipated to be completed by the first quarter of 2027. BENEFITS: This contract amendment will allow for the option to engage in the additional services portion of the Original Agreement, which provides for enhanced community engagement, including a mobile immersion lab interactive and facilitated virtual reality fly-through showcasing final design concepts developed through the Airport Specific Area Plan planning process. FUTURE ACTION: The Airport Specific Area Plan planning process will involve a series of public engagement meetings as well as Council and Planning and Zoning Commission workshops. A Council Workshop, where staff and the consultant will solicit Council feedback on the Airport Activity Center boundary and key considerations for the development of the plan, is planned for late April. A Planning and Zoning workshop is expected to occur in May, followed by stakeholder meetings and community open houses throughout the summer, and an additional Council workshop in late summer. FINANCIAL IMPACT STATEMENT: Approval of the amendment will authorize expenditure of an additional $50,000, bringing the total project cost to $285,064. The additional $50,000 will come from the existing Development Services Department budget. No additional budget authority is required.
